Pediatric surgeons need precise and advanced energy sources for performing procedures on neonates. The technologies have also advanced and industry is continuously upgrading to develop solutions that perform precise and effective action and at the same time is safe and reliable to both the patient as well to the theatre personnels [1]. The major energy sources for neonatal surgery available are...
متن کاملI-46: Radiofrequency Ablation of Uterine Fibroids
Uterine fibroids are benign solid tumors that are present in the majority of women. While often asymptomatic, fibroids can result in abnormal uterine bleeding, pelvic pressure, pain, subfertility, dyspareunia and other symptoms. Submucous and intramural fibroids are most associated with heavy menstrual bleeding; subserosal fibroids are more often innocuous unless sufficiently large so as to con...
متن کاملElectrosurgical generators and monopolar and bipolar electrosurgery.
Electrosurgery is the most commonly used and misunderstood technology by all surgical and medical disciplines. A lack of basic knowledge or ignorance of principles of electrosurgery and equipment among obstetricians and gynecologists is reported. As a result, thermal injuries during laparoscopic electrosurgery occur, which frequently lead to significant morbidity and mortality and medicolegal a...
متن کاملCharacterization and mitigation of stray radiofrequency currents during monopolar resectoscopic electrosurgery.
STUDY OBJECTIVE To determine patterns and range of stray radiofrequency (RF) currents flowing through the working element of monopolar resectoscopes during routine endometrial rollerball ablation or resection; and to determine whether straightforward modifications of the uterine resectoscope and the application of RF monitoring could provide a safe pathway for such currents. DESIGN Prospectiv...
متن کاملMath, myth and the fundamentals of electrosurgery
An electrosurgery generator (ESU) is a critical piece of equipment found in every therapeutic endoscopic setting. The high frequency (RF or Radio Frequency) alternating currents produced by these ubiquitous generators provide the thermal energy used for the treatment of gut diseases from polyps to bile duct stones, strictures, tumors and more. A frequent physician complaint is that even though ...
